Your Right to Information From Your Health Care Provider

Applies to all health plans.

If you request it, a HCP must give you information about her/his qualifications, training and experience. A health plan cannot punish or forbid a HCP from:

- Fully informing you or your representative of all the treatments, therapies, consultations or tests that apply to your condition or disease, even if your plan does not cover them.

- Explaining how the plan’s requirements and limitations affect you.

- Advocating on your behalf.

- Reporting to the State a plan’s practices that the HCP believes has affected the quality of health care.
